What the bill says
On the agenda for Board of County Commissioners — 2026-06-02 — 2026-06-02. Agenda section: CONSENT
Background
The Governor’s Office of Crime Prevention and Policy (GOCCP) released a grant opportunity for the State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2027 Sex Offender and Compliance Enforcement in Maryland (SOCM) Grant.
Discussion
This funding will not create a new program but will support an existing operational function already carried out by the Calvert County Sheriff’s Office. The agency maintains an established process to monitor compliance with Maryland Sex Offender registration laws through registration tracking, field verification, address checks and enforcement actions when violations are identified. These activities are necessary to maintain accurate registry information, promote offender accountability and support public safety in Calvert County.
Coordination
Office of the County Attorney Office of the County Administrator
